As we here at Hottestdaniel are not spoiler-promoting assholes, I offer the following warning for those under the frustratingly anti-internet trap of Pacific Standard Time: The following article contains spoilers. Tonight's Game of Thrones finale thrust viewers into a collective fetal position, grappling with the deaths of prominent characters and the promise of future conflict of a profound nature (should anyone expect differently?). Frequent Game of Thrones director David Nutter spoke with Deadline regarding tonight's emotionally exhausting finale, and we've excerpted that conversation below. On Jon Snow's swift end: "It’s really the true Julius Caesar moment for Jon Snow." On the other demises scattered throughout the finale: "It’s one surprise after the next. It comes right at you in this final episode, and it’s like no other season finale that I know I’ve been a part of or watched. Dan and Dave are so brilliant with respect to arcing out these stories, and how they take place, and how the arc of each of the stories and showing how they play out. They’re so brilliant at that that I treat episodes 9 and 10 like a 2-hour movie and as its own piece of work." On the importance of the source material: "I did not read the books, and for me, I let the scripts basically be my Bible. I think so much of the time, regardless if one has read the books or not, we forget what the first impression really is and why that’s going to matter most to the audience." On his favorite moments from Season Five: "Season 5 was such that I was just really moved by it all, and in that respect, it’s something that you can never give a short shrift to any of the moments. They’re so vitally important. As a director, I only know how to do it one way, is to pour my heart and soul into everything, as well as that’s the only way David and Dan know how to work as well."

Developer CD Projekt Red has responded to concerns that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's graphics were "downgraded" throughout the course of development. In a interview with Eurogamer, key developers from the Polish studio frankly acknowledge that the visuals for the final game--released this week to high praise--don't exactly match a video shown during the VGX awards show two years ago. They also explain why. First, CD Projekt Red co-founder Marcin Iwinski stressed that developing The Witcher 3 for consoles did not hold back the PC edition. "If the consoles are not involved there is no Witcher 3 as it is,"Iwinski said. "We can lay it out that simply. We just cannot afford it, because consoles allow us to go higher in terms of the possible or achievable sales; have a higher budget for the game, and invest it all into developing this huge, gigantic world." "Developing only for the PC: yes, probably we could get more [in terms of graphics] as there would be nothing else--they would be so focused, like if we would develop only on Xbox One or PlayStation 4. But then we cannot afford such a game." Asked specifically why The Witcher 3's graphics might have looked better in the VGX video (below), Iwinski explained that this footage--captured on PC--was derived from a "vertical slice" of the game. This demo was built specifically to run in as high fidelity as possible. It didn't have the game's full open world to contend with, and that helped boost the visuals. "This is the nature of games development," he admitted. Iwinski went on to suggest that, "Maybe we shouldn't have shown that [trailer], I don't know." But he also stresses that CD Projekt Red never set out to mislead anyone with the footage. "It's not a lie or a bad will," he said. "We don't agree there is a downgrade but it's our opinion, and gamers' feeling can be different. If they made their purchasing decision based on the 2013 materials, I'm deeply sorry for that, and we are discussing how we can make it up to them because that's not fair." Iwinski and the rest of the CD Projekt Red team have been personally affected by the graphics fallout. "We don't feel good about it," Iwinski said. "And I treat it very personally." CD Projekt Red marketing manager Michal Platkow-Gilewski added: "The whole team was touched by this." Finally, CD Projekt Red says there is a major patch coming soon to The Witcher 3 that should offer a series of graphical improvements. For the PC edition specifically, another new patch will allow players to edit .ini files. This should let players tweak their visual settings even more than they already can.

Following the result of the just concluded elections in Nigeria, erstwhile president, Olusegun Obasanjo, has yesterday, stated that securing a second term in office “is no longer a right.” According to him, this was a warning to Africans and others across the world that a sitting president can lose an election. This revelation was made known during a press conference organised as part of events to mark African Day in Berlin Germany. The former president said until the recent elections, most leaders in the country and on the continent thought that securing another term in office was automatic, “in fact it was considered impossible to lose”. He said: “The peoples wish prevailed, I am proud to say it here that Nigeria got it right this time around. “The elections may not have been perfect, but it was a reflection of the people’s wish. Even where there were manipulations, it did not affect the results. Attempts to rig did not yield any positive results. I think with what happened, people will no longer be eager to manipulate elections”. He urged those at the echelon of leadership to be mindful of their actions adding, “ When we started the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) many people thought and even voiced it, that the party will rule forever, but look at it today. It is only 16 years down the road and the PDP is already an opposition party”. He said the development was very good for Africa, because “if anything goes well in Nigeria, that is a quarter of the continent going well”. To the president-elect, he said: “If I say employment, what of power, security, education? If he takes up one and ignores the other, do you think he will complete his first tenure in office.” SOURCE: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/05/2nd-term-in-office-is-no-longer-birth.html

There was pandemonium in the Mile 12 area of Lagos on Monday when some Hausa traders went on the rampage and reportedly engaged soldiers in a clash. According to eyewitnesses, the confusion started at about 2pm when the traders were chased out of the Ikorodu Road by the soldiers. Our correspondent gathered that the soldiers, who were in a patrol van, had stopped to rid the road of traders, who were selling their wares and causing gridlock. The Hausa traders were parts of the “offenders”. It was gathered that the Hausa traders, allegedly resisted the soldiers and engaged them in a fight. A shop owner in the area, who identified herself simply as Adejoke, said the clash compounded the traffic snarl in the area for about an hour, as many people fled. She said, “Some Hausa traders started the fight in the afternoon. The soldiers sent everybody away from the road, but they refused to leave. No vehicle or bus could drive pass as the Hausa traders threatened pedestrians and commercial drivers with cutlasses.” Our correspondent gathered that the rampaging traders also prevented passengers from boarding vehicles of the Bus Rapid Transit scheme. The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said he would get back to our correspondent. He, however, had yet to get back as of press time.

A 26-year-old mother of three simply identified as Hafsat says she hasn't seen two of her children, Bala ( and Mohammed (6) since she was kidnapped by Boko Haram members from her village, Yaza in Borno state 11 months ago.While recounting her experience, Hafsat who now lives in the Malkohi Internal Displaced Persons Camp in Yola, Adamawa State, told CNN; "When gunmen came to my village 11 months ago, killing everyone in sight, I thought I could escape. But I was wrong." She said the day she was abducted was the last time she saw her two sons, Bawa and Mohammed, eight and six-years-old, respectively. She was left to care alone for her third son, two-year-old Ismail pictured with her above. She said many other women were separated from their children as well: "When the shooting stopped, we were all led like animals into the forest. I saw babies die and watched in pain as children were asked to bury them. In Sambisa Forest, I was asked to renounce my religion or be treated as a slave. I refused, and I was flogged daily. I did the chores and was given maize and guinea-corn peels to eat. At that time, it meant a lot because some days I had nothing to eat." she said SOURCE: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/05/photowoman-rescued-from-sambisa-forest.html

A 24-year-old Nigerian female migrant who was one of the nearly 6,800 migrants rescued from the dangerously crowded boats trying to get across the Mediterranean into Europe, has reportedly stated that Nigeria is the worst place to be. Stephanie Samuel, who was assisted by a midwife on the naval vessel, during delivery, made this disclosure while narrating her ugly ordeal to Reuters. She said: “I didn’t expect the baby, you know, but she just like, she just came,” Samuel said. “I just wanted to leave Libya. Italy is better than Libya and Nigeria is the worst.” Speaking on her baby’s future, she said, “God decides, not me … but I believe she will have a more good future in Europe.” It was learnt that Samuel worked as a maid in Tripoli for two years to save up money to pay traffickers for the trip. The boat she travelled on, got stuck barely three hours after departure at the Mediterranean Sea. In the course of rescue efforts, she was unconscious after suffering epileptic seizures and went into labor. She subsequently gave birth to a healthy baby girl, and named her Francesca Marina.

Tokunbo Korodo, south-west chairman of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG), says the harrowing experience of Lagos motorists and commuters arising from the fuel scarcity and gridlock on roads may not end anytime soon. According to Korodo, the trucks causing the gridlock on Eko, Liverpool and Coconut bridges, which has affected other major roads, such as Ikorodu road, may not leave the roads anytime soon despite the directive of the Lagos state govt. Speaking with NAN in Lagos on Thursday, he said that only three depots out of over 50 in the state had petroleum products to dispense. “The development has compelled hundreds of trucks to head for the three depots to lift oil. This is the key reason for the unprecedented traffic jam that has locked down Lagos in recent days.” Stakeholders at the meeting were NUPENG, petroleum tankers drivers (PID), national association of road transport owners (NARTO), association of maritime truck owners (AMATO) and independent petroleum markers association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Residents in Nigeria’s economic capital have faced tough times trying to buy premium motor spirit, and their woes have been compounded by traffic jams on most roads in the city. Korodo named the three depots currently having oil as capital oil and gas tank farm, ibeto oil and gas tank farm, and integrated oil and gas tank farm, all in the Apapa. He said the gridlock would ease if trucks queuing for oil would load and leave Lagos by weekend. But observers say such scenario is unlikely. Korodo suggested that the nigerian national petroleum corporation should decentralise loading of petroleum products to ease the pressure on Lagos. “This is the only way Lagos residents can get reprieve from the gridlock, which has forced up transport fares and cost of foodstuff,” he said.

Senators and members of the House of Representatives that will constitute the 8th National Assembly and ministers to be appointed by President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), will on assumption of office receive welcome perks amounting to N9bn. The perks of office include the housing allowance which each of the incoming office holder is entitled to receive once a year, the furniture allowance which they are entitled to once in four years and motor vehicle loan which they are entitled to once in their tenure. The perks are some of the non-regular allowances that the political office holders are entitled to as prescribed by the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission. There are other allowances, both regular and irregular ones, but housing, furniture and motor vehicle are paid at the beginning of the tenure of the office holders to ensure that they settle down appropriately. Housing allowance for the political office holders is 200 per cent of their annual salaries; furniture is 300 per cent and motor vehicle loan is 400 per cent. The Senate President and the Deputy Senate President are not entitled to this allowance because their own accommodation is to be provided by the Federal Government. Similarly, each member of the House of Representatives will be paid N3, 970,425 as housing allowance on assumption of office. This means that the 358 representatives will be collecting a total of N1, 421,412,150 as housing allowance. Again, the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives are excluded from this allowance as the Federal Government is to provide their own accommodation. The principal officers of the National Assembly also benefited from the sale of Government houses. As a result, the Federal Capital Territory Administration is at present building new houses for the lawmakers that will emerge as the Senate President, the Deputy Senate President, the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker. For furniture, each of the senators is to get N6, 079,200. The furniture for both the Senate President and his deputy are to be fully provided by the government. This means that 107 senators will get a total of N650, 474,400 as furniture allowance. Furniture allowance is paid once in four years.

President elect, Gen. Buhari has reportedly ordered aides and security personnel attached to him to always obey traffic regulations during all his movements in any part of the country. In a statement released and signed by his media team in Abuja yesterday May 6th, Buhari said leadership without example will cause ordinary citizens to copy the lawlessness of their leaders. Above is a picture of his convoy waiting at a traffic light. "Without leadership by example, the ordinary citizens would become copycats of the lawlessness of their leaders” He went further by stating that “arrogance of power, lawlessness and disregard for the rights and convenience of fellow citizens would have no place in his government”. He said in a democracy, leaders should not inconvenience their citizens or cause them to experience unbearable ordeals for their own comfort. The President-elect advised his military and police security personnel to be in tune with his philosophy of “bringing the rule of law in the conduct of leaders during their movements on public roads.” SOURCE: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/05/gen-buhari-orders-security-personnel.html

BARCELONA -- One of the greatest joys of watching Leo Messi, or reporting on him first-hand, is that just when you think you've probably seen excellence you'll never see topped, he goes and produces golden moments that supersede his previous brilliance and completely take your breath away. This is precisely what happened at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night as a belligerent, brilliantly organized, intelligent and hugely disciplined Bayern Munich were cut open with scalpel precision by this utterly astonishing Argentinian. Before resorting to adjectives to try and capture his majestic night, I'd simply ask you to use the power of your own eyes and memory. When he celebrated each of his goals, it was with a volcanic passion, an explosive cocktail of joy, rage, relief and disbelief that makes such great viewing. I tell you, he hasn't celebrated a goal in that manner or to that degree since scoring the second against Manchester United at Wembley in 2011.If the football world spent the late stages of that game shaking its head in affectionate disbelief at Messi's exploits (and I swear it did), then just for a second think what it must be like to be Messi. You can do anything; literally anything you want with a football. You are the quickest-brained, the most technically gifted and the most driven player arguably to ever play the game. Just imagine what that feels like. Over time, the hundreds and hundreds of goals begin to feel the same. It's hard to sieve through them mentally and remember them in batches, never mind individually. So when a preternatural celebration like this comes along, it means that the event is celestial and something deep inside your psyche has been touched by the achievement. Rather than worry too much about what the world's media (including this column) says about Messi, just judge the exceptional nature of what he did by the way he reacted to it.It's part of human nature that the second goal, so difficult to produce given that he put Jerome Boateng on his backside and then lofted the ball past the best keeper in the world with his "weaker" foot, will probably receive greater garlands. To Barcelona fans and neutrals alike, that two-goal margin will also have felt very significant. Not definitive, but far beyond what most could have expected given the tense parity of the previous 79 minutes. The third, too, will be put on a regal throne of its own. Bayern were up the field, Barcelona's penalty area was being threatened, Pep Guardiola's team had the cutlass between their teeth and weren't willing to leave Fortress Camp Nou without something, an away goal to temper the rage of defeat. Then, suddenly, the ball was headed clear. Luis Suárez was awake to the possibilities of the "impossible" -- a three-goal lead. The first tackler couldn't put him down. The second did. So many referees err towards caution in such situations. A clear foul, late in the game with the world watching; many officials would blow the whistle and sort the consequences later. But not Nicola Rizzoli. He let play flow but his decision to do so came a second or two after Messi had already decided that he was going to take charge. Pouncing on the loose ball like a starving cat on a lonely mouse, the Argentine was already preparing to send Neymar free on goal before Bayern, Rizzoli or the watching 95,000 fans had any inkling that this was going to be a three-goal win. Neymar raced away and scored a goal of such laconic simplicity that it made the utter brilliance of Manuel Neuer's first half one-on-one saves from Suárez and Dani Alves seem like mirages, like tricks of the mind. The two South Americans had put everything they had into finishing the chances and puncturing the first half tension yet the German World Champion excelled. His saves seemed to mock Barca's attackers but in added time, there was added calm; Neymar didn't even put the ball into the gaping spaces either side of Neuer. He just tucked it through him.So, my argument remains, the commonly acclaimed goals will be numbers two and three. However I think that the first goal, the breakthrough moment, should be in the pantheon. This game was like a cold-war thriller; a John Le Carré masterpiece. Tension crackled everywhere, everyone was looking over their shoulder. Who will crack first? Who will betray us? Not an inch was given, not a millimetre: 76 minutes of who'll blink first. Nerve shredding. Then three vital things happened. They seem coincidental to the casual eye, but they weren't. When Neymar fell in the box, Bayern spent a little bit of time and energy asking the Italian referee for a second yellow; they claim he dived. Finally realising that Rizzoli is neither interested in their claims nor in delaying the game any longer, Neuer is quickest to react. Aside from the personal excellence of those remarkable whites-of-the-eye stops in the first half, one of Neuer's signature moves is the lightning fast way in which he restarts a game. "Find the dope," Bob Paisley (he of three European Cup wins) used to tell his Liverpool players. "When the ball goes dead the lesser players will take a break: mental and physical. But if you are sharp you'll catch that tiny pause when they relax and you can punish it." That's the credo by which both Neuer, and his coach Guardiola, live. Thus Neuer restarted sharply, looking to help Juan Bernat, a thorn in Barcelona's side all night, start a counter-attack. The only problem was that Alves ain't no dope. Not even close. Differently wardrobed, yes; the Brazilian had arrived at the Camp Nou in a luminous red dinner jacket, bow tie, dress shirt and long shorts that reached his calf muscles and showed his tattoos. Only Dani.Sartorial choices aside, Alves saw what was coming, anticipated what Bernat would do and he picked his pocket. The Brazilian sprinted into position, nicked the ball off the toes of the young Spaniard and, without a second's hesitation, fed Messi. At this stage, if real life could be paused then the actuarials among us would have said: "10 to 1 against Messi scoring from there." But Messi is the odds breaker, not the odds maker. He skipped inside, onto the rocket launcher and buried the ball past Neuer into the bottom left-hand corner of the Bayern net. It wasn't an "impossible" goal but it was so, so unlikely. Neuer is the best. Sometimes he seems unbeatable. In my life, I've only really seen his ilk when Peter Shilton, Peter Schmeichel and (occasionally) Gianluigi Buffon have been at their absolute peak. Both Iker Casillas and Victor Valdes have been stunningly good; brilliant at one-on-ones. But those others seem to fill the goal and go through spells where opponents are cowed by them; it feels like they'll never be beaten. Yet Messi just slotted it, from distance. And I judge that to be remarkable. I interviewed the great man after the match and I can tell you he wasn't exuberant, nor was he beaming that shy smile of his. Friendly, content and open, yes -- but not even a scintilla of "we've got a foot and a half in Berlin already." That mood was matched by every single Barcelona player who spoke. On and off camera they were polite and firm, but also restrained. Before the match, Guardiola stated it would be impossible for Bayern to qualify for the final if they didn't score at the Camp Nou. He didn't quote the odds for not scoring and conceding three. Clearly if they harass and overwhelm Barcelona like they did Porto in the quarterfinal second leg, then all bets are off. What's truly impossible is that if Messi does anything remotely like this again in just under a week, Bayern [or anyone for that matter] will be able to resist him. There you are. Lionel Andres Messi. Simply irresistible. SOURCE: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/05/lionel-messi-sets-new-standard-in.html

History of FC Bayern vs FC Barcelona 1995-1996 UEFA Cup Semifinals FC Bayern 4-3 FC Barcelona (on aggregate) The very first meeting in Europe between these two sides came in a competition which is definitely not on top of Uli Hoeness' priorities in the UEFA Cup. The first ever encounter took place in Munich's Olympiastadion. Barcelona gave a very good account of themselves. Oscar Garcia scored in the 15th minute to give Barcelona an away goal but Bayern, shortly after the second half began, turned it around through goals from Marcel Witeczek and Mehmet Scholl. A Barcelona side with Pep Guardiola was not done though. Gheorghe Hagi scored in the 77th minute. Barcelona left with two away goals at 2-2; Bayern had a tough task. They had to turn the tie around.But under Otto Rehhagel, they knew how to do just that. Markus Babbel's goal in the first half in Catalonia gave Bayern the lead. Another goal was not to come till after the 80th minute when Witeczek scored Bayern's second. Ivan De la Pena's goal one minute before the end of the game for Barca set up a nervy finish but Bayern saw it through and went on to hammer Bordeaux in the two-legged final and lift the Cup. After the game, Rehhagel could not help but say "This is a historic win for Bayern and a historic day for me... ..... ."1998-1999 UEFA Champions League Group stages One of Bayern's historic teams played in the late 90's and early 2000's. That golden generation topped a group including Manchester United, Barcelona and Brondby in the group stages of the 1998-99 UEFA Champions League. In the first meeting at the Olympiastadion, Bayern took care of business thanks to a Stefan Effenberg strike on the stroke of half time. In Camp Nou, Giovanni fired in from the spot about half an hour into the match.Louis Van Gaal's Barcelona were going to be rather disappointed by the end though. This is because Alex Zickler scored a few minutes after play resumed in the second half. An 87th minute strike from Hasan Salihamidzic handed Bayern all three points. Bayern's future coach moaned a bit after the match about the nature of the goals: "They scored two lucky goals, which were both deflections. ..... "2008-09 UEFA Champions League quarter finals Bayern 1-5 Barcelona (on aggregate) The Bayern fans were not in the best of moods having experienced hammerings that season already, with a 5-2 drumming against Werder Bremen sticking out at this point. Injuries and an aging squad led by a rookie coach gave everyone very little to hope for and within the first forty-five minutes, the tie was over. Two goals by a magical Lionel Messi coupled with strikes from the wily Samuel Eto'o and the Arsenal legend Thierry Henry sent Bayern crashing out.After the match, our captain Mark Van Bommel spoke whatwas on everyone's minds: "We were fortunate that the score was only 4-0 because we were made to look like amateurs." The gap between Bayern and European football's elites was painfully obvious that night and perhaps led to the changes in 2009-10. Meanwhile, Jürgen Klinsmann (whose star player was busy smiling and changing jerseys with Henry) stated the obvious. "It is quite possible we played against the future champions of Europe."Franck Ribery helped Bayern get one back in the second half of the second leg at the Allianz Arena but Barcelona were simply playing out the tie. A Seydou Keita strike saw them level the match on the night and send Bayern crashing out in painful fashion. Four years later, Bayern would repay the favor. ....... 2012-13 UEFA Champions League Semifinals FC Bayern 7-0 Barcelona (on aggregate) In what remains as one of Europe's biggest shocks as well as one of the most one sided semifinals in history, Bayern put their foot down to show the world what they can do under Jupp Heynckes. Nobody had expected such a finish considering that Bayern had had their close brushes, only getting through against Arsenal via away goals in the Round of 16 for example. A Thomas Müller goal in the first half started the party. Mario Gomez got a chance to play in place of the starter Mario Mandzukic and scored early in the second half from close range. Arjen Robben brushed past Jordi Alba and scored the third while Müller helped himself to his second of the night and Bayern's fourth.In the second leg in the Camp Nou, Bayern did not give Barcelona much breathing room. Adjusting their tactics to counteract the opponents' as they had done all season long, they produced a scintillating display in the second half. Robben scored early in the second half. Gerard Pique put the ball into his own net and Müller added one for good measure to seal a 0-3 victory and a 7-0 victory on aggregate. That score remains the largest margin of victory in a UEFA Champions League semifinal in history. Pique added after the game "When another side is so much better than you, there isn't any option except to congratulate them".On a side note, the match was the last in which Tito Vilanova stood on the sidelines in a European night.We all know how the remainder of that story goes. Bayern went on to contest a closely fought dramatic final against Borussia Dortmund and win their fifth title.When these two sides have met previously, the winner of the tie has gone on to win the UEFA Champions League. While, in light of the injury list and Barcelona's form, beating the Spanish giants is a tough ask for Bayern, they can certainly dream after looking back on the fixtures from two years ago. Also, Müller might hand them a few tips if they need them. FCB vs FCB should provide more fireworks. The first leg takes place in Spain on Wednesday.* SOURCE: WWW.HOTTESTDANIEL..COM

Developer says pushing the open-world zombie game to next year will help the game realize its full potential.Yet another big-name 2015 game is shifting to 2016. Deep Silver on Thursday announced that its open-world zombie game Dead Island 2 has been delayed out of 2015 and into next year. The reason? Deep Silver wants to make a game that's true to their vision. This process is taking longer than previously expected."We have always set ourselves a big goal for Dead Island 2: to create the sequel that takes Dead Island to the next level. A game that takes what our fans tell us they love about Dead Island--multiple different characters to play with, co-op, and turning a paradise setting into a zombie slaughter melee--and a game that adds a ton more content and combat options on top of that," the studio said on Twitter. "And we wanted to have all of that that done for release in spring 2015. We have been looking at the game long and hard, and we have decided we didn't reach that goal we set out to achieve quite yet. This is why we have decided to delay Dead Island 2 to 2016." "Right now we are focusing purely on development, and we will have more info to share at a later stage. We know that our fans will be disappointed by this news, but by giving Dead Island 2 more time we are confident that everyone will get a better game to play as a result." Unlike the original Dead Island (2011) and sequel Dead Island Riptide (2013), which were developed by Polish studio Techland, Dead Island 2 is currently in production at Spec Ops: The Line studio Yager. Techland's most recent release, this January's zombie game Dying Light, enjoyed a successful launch. It sold more than 3.2 million copies in its first 45 days, outpacing the original Dead Island. Dead Island 2 is not the only new Dead Island project in the works. There is also the MOBA Dead Island Epidemic (available now in open beta) and a Dead Island movie, which was recently resurrected. Dead Island 2 was officially announced during Sony's E3 press conference last summer for PlayStation 4. The game is also coming to Xbox One and PC, but its beta will be held first on PS4. The game will feature melee combat, role-playing game elements, and "never-before-seen" handcrafted weapons, according to Deep Silver. In Dead Island 2, which is powered by Unreal Engine 4, you'll visit places like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco and Venice Beach. There's also "seamless" multiplayer for up to eight players. You can "cooperate, compete, or simply coexist," Deep Silver says. It's all part of this "new-gen multiplayer experience." Finally, Dead Island 2 features a handful of dedicated classes that offer unique gameplay, including the action-focused Berserker and the stealth Hunter. For a closer look at Dead Island 2, check out the images in the gallery at the bottom of this post. Dead Island 2 isn't the first big-name game to get pushed out of 2015. Others include The Legend of Zelda Wii U, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and Homefront: The Revolution. SOURCE: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/04/dead-island-2-delayed.html

Foreign-owned shops in South Africa have been attacked and looted in east Johannesburg, the latest in a series of xenophobic attacks. A standoff developed in the city, with police forming a barrier between an angry crowd and foreign-owned shops. The violence comes despite Thursday's rally against xenophobia in the coastal city of Durban, and condemnation from President Jacob Zuma. At least five people have died in anti-foreigner attacks in recent weeks. Migrants, mostly from other African states and Asia, have moved to South Africa in large numbers since white-minority rule ended in 1994.Many South Africans accuse them of taking jobs in a country where the unemployment rate is 24%. A crowd began looting foreign-owned shops in east Johannesburg on Thursday night. About about 200 foreigners took refuge at a police station. Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the looters and arrested 12 people. A new standoff began in the eastern suburb of Jeppestown on Friday, as police sought to prevent people from attacking more shops. Police used rubber bullets to disperse a group of migrants in Johannesburg who had armed themselves with machetes for protection.Eyewitness: Raphael Nkomo, a Zimbabwean living and working in Johannesburg What I saw when I was going to the shops on Thursday evening, it was so terrible. A group of men were dropped from a mini bus, and all of them were armed with pangas, a [type of] very big knife. They started chasing people, throwing stones at them. Some were even knifed. We had to run for cover. We ended up in the shops, and the owners closed the shops while we were still inside until the police were called. What I saw was terrifying, and if it continues like this by the time the government wakes up many people will be dead. It is very, very bad. Africans call for South Africa boycott The acting Premier of the Gauteng province around Johannesburg, Qedani Mahlangu, called on "each and every South African who's a peace-loving South African to stand up and condemn this." On Thursday President Zuma condemned the recent xenophobic attacks as "shocking". "No amount of frustration or anger can justify the attacks on foreign nationals and the looting of their shops," he told parliament on Thursday. Zulu King Goodwill Zwelithini has been accused of fuelling the attacks by saying that foreigners should "go back to their countries". However, he said that his comments had been distorted.At least 62 people died in xenophobic attacks in South Africa in 2008. Regional reaction: "Zimbabwe has to have its economy working again so that its citizens are not hunted like animals in foreign lands. The xenophobia is not only a shame for South Africa, but for the continent at large." - Zimbabwe's Newsday.about two million foreign nationals in South Africa, about 4% of the total population. But some estimates put the number of immigrants at five million. Many South Africans are against the violence, but are also unhappy with the level of immigration and feel they are being undercut by immigrants from poorer countries, our correspondent adds.The police have established 24-hour centres to clamp down on attacks on foreign nationals, Several African states have said they are prepared to help their nationals return home. Amid fears of reprisal attacks, energy and chemical giant Sasol said it would repatriate more than 300 South Africans working in Mozambique. "As Malawians, let us collectively take a stand to show our anger. For starters, let us boycott South African business empires." - Malawi's Nyasa Times "The most worrying thing is that all of this in happened South Africa amidst the quasi-indifference from the authorities. It took a dozen days of deadly violence in Durban for the president to be roused to action." - Burkina Faso's L'Observateur.

The President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, is said to be considering the reduction of the number of ministers as part of his strategies for reducing cost of governance. Those to be done away with are ministers of state. The NWC which is yet to conclude its deliberations on proposals, according a high-ranking member of the APC NWC, include streamlining the ministries and parastatals. The NWC member said, “No concrete decision has been reached on any of the issues yet. We are still meeting tomorrow.” The meeting, which was chaired by the party’s National Chairman, John Odigie-Oyegun, also reviewed the just-concluded general elections, the deadlock in the Taraba State governorship poll as well as the alleged electoral fraud in Rivers and Akwa Ibom states. The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Lai Mohammed, who spoke to journalists during a short break by the committee, confirmed that the NWC reviewed the governorship election. He also said that with the “election behind us, we have to prepare the ground for the transition committee and for the business of the governance.” When asked to comment on the proposals made by Buhari on streamlining the ministries and parastatals, he dismissed the question. Mohammed said, “I think you have been listening to a lot of gossip; nothing like that was discussed. All we discussed was to make recommendations into the transition committee; how the government should hit the ground running and what should be the immediate, mid-term and long term policies of the incoming government. So, all these issues of ministers and MDAs, are your own imagination. - See more at: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/04/buhari-may-scrap-ministers-of-state.html

Beauty has nothing to do with size, it has everything to do with confidence. When it comes to good loving, curvy girls hold the most pleasurable secrets to making any man happy (this doesn’t mean slimmer girls don’t). What’s not to love in a full curvy figure with ass and tits? Everything we guess. Here are five reasons why we think curvy girls are the best in bed: BOOBS Not every curvy girl has large boobs but the chances are 80% are favored with big bobs and tits are everything and more. There is hardly any man that doesn’t fancy boobs as this is usually the first step of pre-intimacy before sex. BUTTS Big butts in children are as a result of Omega 3 fatty acid they store and there is NO curvy girl without a big butt. Being with a curvy girl is your subconscious way of ensuring healthy kids. A PLACE TO REST After long pleasurable sex, the soft womanly curves is the perfect place to rest your post-shagging head. There is really no difference between her butt and the pillow. HEALTHY SEX APPEAL There is really nothing more appealing than a curvy full figured lady. Curvy girls have long been associated with beauty and sex appeal and thousands of years of history can never be wrong. A curvy girl is easily appealing to the eyes at first sight which in turn creates an healthy appetite. CONFIDENCE Having boobs, a massive backside or something to grab hold of is not only what makes a curvy woman sexy, it goes beyond that to knowing how best to rock it. Beauty has everything to do with confidence and confidence has everything to do with amazing sex. See more at: http://hottestdaniel..com/2015/04/5-reasons-why-curvy-girls-are-best-in.html
